JPMorgan raises target for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company stock
Published on 10/02/2026 at 15:58 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSTaiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ISIN US8740391003) was trading at EUR 414.00 at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026 at 3:41 p.m. CEST, up 1.28 percent versus the prior close of EUR 408.75. According to Futunn on October 1, 2026, JPMorgan raised its target for Taiwan Semiconductor from NT$3,200 to NT$3,300 while maintaining an Overweight rating.
JPMorgan sees stronger quarterly demand
The report puts third-quarter 2026 revenue at USD 45.80 billion, up 14.00 percent from the second quarter, with gross margin at 66.80 percent. It also points to fourth-quarter 2026 revenue growth of 11.00 percent sequentially, tying the analyst case to continued demand for advanced-node wafers.
JPMorgan also raised its June 2027 target by NT$100, equivalent to a 3.13 percent increase from NT$3,200. The same report says earnings-per-share forecasts for 2027 and 2028 were raised by 5.00 percent and 6.00 percent, respectively, as Taiwan Semiconductor expands N3 and N2 capacity.
June quarter delivered double-digit growth
Sector Alpha reported on September 22, 2026 that Taiwan Semiconductor generated USD 1,270 billion of revenue and USD 707 billion of net profit in the June 2026 quarter. Revenue increased 36.00 percent year over year, while profit rose 77.40 percent, and the operating margin reached 60.30 percent.
The comparison matters because profit growth outpaced revenue growth by 41.40 percentage points in the June 2026 quarter. That spread gives the analyst target a measurable earnings basis, although the company is also entering a major 2-nanometer production ramp.
